Note that you don't *want* to be binary compatible with the junk they distribute. Unless you really expect to have copies of 5.00503 running? No, probably not. RH and Debian distros are distriuted by heavy Python users who go out of their way to hamstring Perl at every step. Unless things have changed massively, the Perl they distribute is not only out of date it's nearly broken out of the box. Try running "perl -V" sometime and review the "config_args" values. enjoi -- Steven Lembark 3646 Flora Place Workhorse Computing St. Louis, MO 63110 lembark@xxxxxxxxxxx +1 888 359 3508
